SIL - retrieve information for fields from another project

[BBC Application Admin Team]

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to use Kepler Custom Fields and the script below but get an error on the create screen and no options to select from on the edit screen.

Error:Script is not running in the context of an issue.Cannot get value for field customfield_13608 at com.keplerrominfo.jira.plugins.keplercf-pro:sil-options-multi-select-cf/com/keplerrominfo/jira/plugins/keplercf/pro/optionscf/selectcf-edit.vm

Setup

Project A:

Field A = Value 1,2,3

Project B :

Field A = Value 1,2,3

Field B = Value 1,2,3

What i want to achieve is , when i type in value 1 on field A on the create / edit screen of Project A, i want it to match the same value of field A on Project B and return field B's values .

The script im using is linked to an 'Info' custom field using a multiline text field (customfield_13606).

Consider field A on project A as customfield_13608

Script

KPOption[] selectedValues = customfield_13608;
customfield_13606 = "";
string [] allIssues = selectIssues("project=SERVICE and status=production order by summary");
// string[] selectedKeys;
string headingsText = "|| Type || Summary || Key || Production Group || Platform ||";
string contentText;
for (KPOption v in selectedValues) {
for (string iss in allIssues) {
if (iss.summary == v.value) {
// selectedKeys = addElement(selectedKeys, iss.key);
string[] fields = getIssueFields(iss.key);

string[] fieldAItems = fields["customfield_10314"]; // because the Production Group field is a multiselection

string[] fieldBItems = fields["customfield_10286"]; // because the Platformp field is a multiselection

contentText += "\n| " + iss.type +" | " + iss.summary + " | " + iss.key
+ " | " + fieldAItems + " | " + fieldBItems + " |";
}
}
}
if (isNotNull(contentText)) {
customfield_13606 = headingsText + contentText;
}

I realised the error as it was my fault.

The script was matching on custom field 13608-

KPOption[] selectedValues = customfield_13608;

However, the values in that field were never going to match what i was fetching from the other project as that field was producing a different result set! Made sure that field had the same as the keys in the destination project and that resolved it.
